Hubert Lamy’s Chassagne-Montrachet Red: Old Vine Elegance

The Domaine Hubert Lamy Chassagne-Montrachet ‘La Goujonne Vieilles Vignes’ Rouge is a standout luxury Red Burgundy, showcasing the exceptional quality of Pinot Noir from an appellation primarily known for its world-class Chardonnay. Sourced from the ‘La Goujonne’ parcel, planted in 1950, these Vieilles Vignes (V.V. – Old Vines) yield fruit of intense concentration and depth.

Tasting Profile & Winemaking

Under the stewardship of Olivier Lamy, a minimalist approach to winemaking-including low-impact farming and restrained oak aging-ensures the wine is a pure, unadulterated expression of its clay-rich terroir. This is a powerful yet refined wine, built for the cellar.

• Color: Brilliant, luminous ruby.
• Nose: A complex and seductive bouquet of crushed red berries (raspberry, Morello cherry), forest floor, sweet spice, and a distinct mineral freshness.
• Palate: Full-bodied and concentrated, yet remarkably elegant. The fine, structured tannins provide a solid framework for the rich fruit core. The finish is long, velvety, and deeply satisfying, highlighting the superb balance between power and finesse.

Pairing Recommendations & Serving

This is a serious Pinot Noir that calls for equally serious cuisine. Decanting for an hour is highly recommended, and serve slightly cool to maximize its aromatic complexity.

• Serving Temperature: 59-61°F (15-16°C)
• Cellaring Potential: Ready to enjoy, but will evolve beautifully through 2035+.
